    Chapter 4 Building International Will and Capacity to Counter Terrorism The Department of State engages diplomatically with for- eign governments and in international and regional fora to accomplish the US Government’s first priority — protect- ing Americans at home and abroad. The Department of State’s diplomatic efforts help build the political will and operational skills of foreign governments to combat terror. Many countries are committed allies in the global war on terrorism. Some, however, need train- ing and resources to develop stronger institutions and capabilities. The Department of State’s counterterrorism efforts are an essential component in the success of US military, law enforcement, intelligence, and financial ac- tivities in the global fight against terrorism. Multilateral and regional organizations are also a key plat- form for developing broad international support for the adoption and implementation of policies, strategies, and “best practices” in combating terrorism and financing of terrorist activities. The Department of State works actively with foreign governments to urge adoption of all 12 inter- national counterterrorism conventions, as well as adherence to and implementation of UNSCR 1373, which imposes binding obligations on all states to suppress and prevent terrorist financing, improve their border controls, enhance information sharing and law enforcement coop- eration, suppress terrorist recruitment, and deny terrorists safe haven. Antiterrorism Assistance Program Ambassador J. Cofer Black, former US State Department Coordinator Congress authorized the Antiterrorism Assistance (ATA) Pro- for Counterterrorism, during a news conference at the IV Regular gram in 1983 as part of a major initiative against international Session of the Organization of American States Inter-American terrorism.

  • Indien – China – USA: Das Neue Mächtedreieck Asiens
    Indien – China – USA: Das neue Mächtedreieck Asiens Heinrich Kreft1 1 Die Entstehung eines neuen Mächtedreiecks in Asien seit Ende des Kalten Krieges Das Ende des Kalten Krieges führte nicht nur in Europa zu erheblichen politischen Veränderungen und Machtverschiebungen, sondern auch in Asien. Hinzu kam, dass zeitgleich mehrere Länder und Regionen Asiens einen beispiellosen wirtschaftlichen Boom erlebten. 1.1 Der Untergang der Sowjetunion Der wichtigste Einzelfaktor für die Veränderung der politischen Landschaft in Asien war der Zusammenbruch der Sowjetunion und das sich daran anschließende Schwin- den des russischen Einflusses in Südasien. Die UdSSR war lange Zeit der wichtigste Verbündete Indiens gewesen, festgeschrieben im indisch-sowjetischen Vertrag von 1971, in dem Moskau Indiens Schutz garantierte. Allerdings wurde dieses Abkom- men bereits Ende der 1980er-Jahre durch die Bemühungen Gorbatschows unter- höhlt, die sowjetischen Beziehungen zu China zu verbessern. Die Russische Förde- ration als Rechtsnachfolger der Sowjetunion war Anfang der 1990er-Jahre kaum noch in der Lage, den sowjetischen Einfluss in Südasien aufrecht zu erhalten. Der ökonomische Niedergang Moskaus ging auch nach dem Zusammenbruch der UdSSR weiter, die russische Marine war nie in der Lage, die Rolle ihrer sowjeti- schen Vorgängerin im Indischen Ozean zu übernehmen. Die indisch-russischen Beziehungen laborieren auch heute noch an den Folgen der Auflösung der Sowjetunion, mit der Indien seinen bis dahin wichtigsten politi- schen und auch ökonomischen Partner verloren

  • Air America in South Vietnam I – from the Days of CAT to 1969
    Air America in South Vietnam I From the days of CAT to 1969 by Dr. Joe F. Leeker First published on 11 August 2008, last updated on 24 August 2015 I) At the times of CAT Since early 1951, a CAT C-47, mostly flown by James B. McGovern, was permanently based at Saigon1 to transport supplies within Vietnam for the US Special Technical and Economic Mission, and during the early fifties, American military and economic assistance to Indochina even increased. “In the fall of 1951, CAT did obtain a contract to fly in support of the Economic Aid Mission in FIC [= French Indochina]. McGovern was assigned to this duty from September 1951 to April 1953. He flew a C-47 (B-813 in the beginning) throughout FIC: Saigon, Hanoi, Phnom Penh, Vientiane, Nhatrang, Haiphong, etc., averaging about 75 hours a month. This was almost entirely overt flying.”2 CAT’s next operations in Vietnam were Squaw I and Squaw II, the missions flown out of Hanoi in support of the French garrison at Dien Bien Phu in 1953/4, using USAF C-119s painted in the colors of the French Air Force; but they are described in the file “Working in Remote Countries: CAT in New Zealand, Thailand-Burma, French Indochina, Guatemala, and Indonesia”. Between mid-May and mid-August 54, the CAT C-119s continued dropping supplies to isolated French outposts and landed loads throughout Vietnam. When the Communists incited riots throughout the country, CAT flew ammunition and other supplies from Hanoi to Saigon, and brought in tear gas from Okinawa in August.3 Between 12 and 14 June 54, CAT captain

Basically what happened is that those women who were arrested with young boys, children, in cases that have been recorded, the boys were sodomized, with the cameras rolling, and the worst above all of them is the soundtrack of the boys shrieking.

  • Thesis Edit Final
    ABSTRACT You are Who You Fight: The CIA, Covert Action, and National Security Charissa Huntzinger Director: Peter Campbell Ph.D. Hollywood thrillers, conspiracy theories and political discourse, often depict the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) as an uncontrollable, enigmatic organization populat- ed by James Bonds. The agency’s mandate, set out in the National Security Act of 1947, tells a different story that is often overlooked. In essence, the US government designed the CIA as a center of intelligence analysis and not a cloak and dagger outfit. Neverthe- less, the CIA did develop a covert action branch and from the Cold War to the War on Terror, the CIA has increasingly relied on this operational component. But where did this branch come from and how and why has it adapted or failed to adapt to changes in the international environment? Through two case studies, this thesis evaluates the efficacy of bureaucratic, organizational cultural, and realist theories for explaining the evolution of covert action within the CIA.

  • Prepared Statement of Secretary of State Colin L. Powell
    Secretary of State Colin L. Powell Written Remarks Submitted to: The National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States 23 March 2004 Mr. Chairman, Mr. Vice Chairman, Members of the Commission, thank you for the opportunity to appear before you regarding the events leading up to and following the murderous terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. It is my hope, as I know it is yours, that through the hard work of this Commission, and other bodies like it, our country can improve the way we wage the war on terror and, in particular, better protect our homeland and the American people. I am pleased to have with me today Deputy Secretary Richard Armitage. Secretary Armitage was sworn in on March 26, two months into the Administration and he has been intimately involved in the interagency deliberations on our counterterrorism policies. He also participated in National Security Council meetings whenever I was on travel. Mr. Chairman, I leave Washington this evening to represent President Bush and the American people at the memorial service in Madrid, Spain honoring the over 200 victims of the terrorists attacks of March 11, 2004. With deep sympathy and solidarity, our heart goes out to their loved ones and to the people of Spain. And just last Thursday, in the garden of our embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan, I presided at a memorial service in honor of two State Department family members, Barbara Green and her daughter Kristen Wormsley, who were killed two years ago by terrorists while they worshipped in church on a bright, beautiful spring morning.
